Software :: Mencoder And The Lost Icons?

I edited some mpeg videos using Mencoder to crop unwanted footage from the beginning and the end. It worked, but now the file does not have a "visual" icon, i.e. a still from the video. The properties of the new file also reveal that it thinks it's an audio file! The file still plays (as a video) okay though.A typical command I used to extract just the first 14 seconds of the video was:

mencoder "e03.mpg" -o ee03a.mpg -ss 0:0:0 -endpos 0:0:14 -oac copy -ovc copyI did try to make up a new icon by making a snapshot of the movie playing, then using the image to replace the icon in the properties window. (I am using Nautilus file manager in Ubuntu). The icon it now gives me looks like a small sheet of paper with one end curled up.I can appreciate that editing the video length might have "lost" the icon information, but is there any way I can put it back again
